Use appropriate eye protection when using
compressed air for cleaning or drying purposes.
Compressed air can cause serious personal
injury. Use safety reduction valves to reduce the
air pressure to a safe level before use.
It is important that all components are absolutely
clean, as contamination can result in serious
damage and/or improper operation.
Never use shop towels or rags to dry parts after
cleaning, as lint may clog passages. Dry parts
using compressed air.
